Jordan Krupp sent me an interesting email
a few weeks ago,regarding his own website.
He actually constructs model rc snowmobiles. Whats that got to do with
this site i hear you ask? Jordan is also a bike fanatic,and said he has
designed and built his own large scale Honda NSR500. I think he said it
is 1/4 scale,and as you can see it is a very good copy, which has taken
him many years to perfect. Have a look at Jordans site at
www.rcsnowmobiles.com

More news of the
new thunder tiger bike from Neil Campion. It can be bought in the uk at
MODELSPORT in
Otley, North Yorkshire.
It costs £199 without electrics. You can
get it cheaper if you buy online. The kit is basically a rebadged Nuova
Faor with R1 style bodywork. The bodywork is already painted as in the
picture. And is much more robust than the 501 and Harm bodywork.
Although some of the parts are finished differently, it has the same
chassis as the 501.
